Letters From The Global South Exhibition

Event Description

Facts, figures, and graphs can only go so far in explaining what is happening as a result of the climate-nature crisis. But the impact on children in communities already living through this harsh reality tells much more of the story. They speak of the fear, urgency, and sense of abandonment that is experienced—and is becoming the everyday reality of life for so many—in ways we can’t (yet) imagine.

Children’s messages from across the Global South are at the heart of a new touring exhibition and workshop—Letters from the Global South—that’s been created to amplify their voices and connect with communities, here, in the UK. The letters, photos, and artwork from communities in Bangladesh, India, Indonesia, Kenya, Morocco, Nigeria and Pakistan are an urgent call for action from those most deserving of being heard.

This new project has been created by Zero Hour, Muslims Declare, and IFEES/Eco-Islam (Islamic Foundation for Ecology & Environmental Sciences) and brings to life illustrated explanations of the scientific principles behind the Climate and Nature Bill, and ensuring that the UK plays its full role in tackling this global crisis.
